As I understand it (and this may of course be my mistake) the latest build
of WTP works on Eclipse 3.1. I am completely failing to get it to work
and would be greatful of any help anyone could give.

I installed a fresh version of 3.1 (I have been using 3.0 with Lomboz for
a while now for Java and JSP development) and added the pre-reqs for WTP
and then WTP. But I can not find any bits of WTP anywhere on the
Eclipse window. I have looked in the logs but there is nothing there
saying that there are any problems, and I have tried running eclipse -clean
to ensure that the new plugins and features are notes.

Looking at the Configuration logs it says that the plugins are Installed
and there are not errors that I can see anywhere. Any ideas as to where
I look next?

David,

In the configuration log, "Installed" does not mean the plugin is available.
It must show "Resolved", i.e. all prereqs are resolved.
Check your .metadata/.log file, it may show more information about missing
prereqs.

It just opens it as a flat file. No colour highlighting, and no auto
completion.

Some are Resolved, but not all. However the .metadata/.log file has nothing
referring to missing pre-reqs.

The "C:\eclipse" maybe different depending on where you installed it.

Make sure the following are enabled (pay attention to version numbers).
They will not have a non-smoking circle if they are enabled. Once
everything is enabled, you should have a new perspective called J2EE.

Eclipse SDK 3.1.0
EMF SDK 2.1.0.I200506230200
GEF SDK 3.1.0
J2EE Standard Tools Feature and Web Standard Tools Feature SDK 0.7.0
Java EMF Model SDK 1.1.0
Visual Editor SDK 1.0.2.1

Here are the locations if you do not have any of them installed.

Eclipse SDK 3.1.0:
http://eclipse.org/downloads/index.php

EMF:
http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drivers/emf-s do-xsd-SDK-I200506230200.zip

GEF:
http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drivers/GEF-S DK-3.1RC4.zip

J2EE Standard Tools Feature and Web Standard Tools Feature SDK 0.7.0:
http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drops/S-1.0M5 -200506302219/wtp-1.0M5.zip

Java EMF Model SDK 1.1.0:
http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drivers/JEM-S DK-I20050623.zip


The Visual Editor I believe is standard and I am pretty sure I have done
one update to it. I do have a little X on it, so that maybe fine for now.

Also, I have a configuration for J2EE Standard Tools Feature and Web
Standard Tools Feature SDK 1.0.0. That one does not work, disable that
if you have to and enable 0.7.0 instead.

You probably don't have to install the SDK version of the plugins, but I
am sending you a setup that works for me.

Hope this helps,

While I now have the components Resolved rather than Installed
this has not fixed the problem. I still can not find any
trace of the action function of WTP. For instance JSP files
have no context completion or colouring.

Are you seeing any errors in your .log file? Have you installed
anything more than WTP and its prereqs?

As I said earlier in this thread there are no errors in the .log file.
I did try installing the Lomboz stuff, but I cleared the entire
directory three for eclipse 3.1 and reinstalled.

Have you tried creating a new workspace (don't import any previous work)
and testing to see if WTP works in that? Do a File -> New -> Project
and see if there is a J2EE folder.

This is based on the assumption that even after you cleared the entire
eclipse directory, your opening up the previous workspace. I am not
sure if anything in the old workspace may cause issues.

I had not tried this, but I have now.

I unpacked Eclipse 3.1, emf-sdo-xsd-SDK, GEF-SDK-3.1, GEM-SDK-I20050623
and WTP-1.0M5 into a new, empty eclipse directory, and then started it
from a totally new workspace directory. I got the same result.

In the About Eclipse Configuration log, all plugins are either Resolved
or Active. In the newly created workspace there is NO .log file in the
..metadata directory.

I am running on a Debian unstable system with Sun Java 1.5.0-b64.

I'm having the same problem since M5. Tried clean workspace without luck.
The editors don't seem to be registered because I can't even associate
extensions.

I had the same problem until a few minutes ago. It seems really
important to have at least the versions installed named as requirements.
And also important, not to confuse the JEM parts within VE with the JEM
package referred to as requirement. The latter requires EMF 2.1.0 to be
installed (which does not come with eclipse 3.1 containing EMF 2.0.1!).

I found it quite helpful to not copy the plugins into the eclipse folder
but to extract the plugins somewhere else and use the eclipse update
facility ("New local site ..." pointing to the eclipse folder created by
extracting the plugins). This is, because the update facility shows, if
the required packages for a plugin are yet to be installed.

Maybe this helps.

Cheers,
Stefan
